[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was under the impression that not only would an 8th grader transferring over need to have had and done well in algebra, but the student would have also had a year of physics, biology, and chemistry, respectively. Not sure about what level of Latin would be necessary or if the student could just stick with modern languages.[/quote] The charter school law does not allow academic prerequisites for admission. If Basis admits anyone to 8th (or whatever) grade, the process is a random lottery.[/quote] Not true. The charter law requires that admissions be non-selective, not grade placement. My understanding is that testing for grade placement is written into the BASIS DC charter and was approved by the PCSB.[/quote]
